# Design Brief: Precision Swiss Grid (with Enterprise Clean)

Exposed 1px hairline grid rules with intersection crosshairs, modular bento cards, and strict geometric alignment with modern engineering craft.

## Design Tokens

```css
:root {
  --background: #f1f1ef;
  --surface: #ffffff;
  --foreground: #17191d;
  --muted-foreground: #68717c;
  --accent: #2145b2;
  --radius: 8px;
  --font-heading: "Arial", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
  --font-body: "Arial", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
}
```

Color area ratio: Background #F1F1EF (~66%) · Surface #FFFFFF (~11%) · Text #17191D (~7%) · Muted Text #68717C (~6%) · Accent #2145B2 (~10%). Background and surface dominate the canvas; reserve the accent color for primary buttons and active states.

## Layout & Conversion Structure

- Hero layout: Full-Bleed Canvas / Video / 3D
- Navigation: Full-Width Top Bar
- Theme & density: Light · Dense
- Border radius & elevation: Medium Radius; use elevation shadows to separate layers
- Primary visual medium: Interactive Hero Demo / Tool
- Conversion CTA: Download App / Install Extension · Trust bar uses Live Generated Output Showcase
- Headline hook: Category Positioning Anchor
- Hero components: Large Hero Product Shot, Interactive Hero Tool, Metrics Strip
- Spatial layout notes: Full-Bleed Canvas / Video / 3D hero structure paired with download app / install extension CTA and live generated output showcase.
- Visual summary: Precision Swiss Grid (Light canvas, dense density) featuring full-bleed canvas / video / 3d layout and interactive hero demo / tool visuals.

## Avoid

- Soft organic blobs
- Misaligned freeform floating elements
- Heavy drop shadows that obscure grid hairlines

Implement the UI following the design tokens and layout specifications above: use only these color variables, and reserve the accent color strictly for primary actions and active states. Adopt only this visual style—never copy any reference product’s brand name, logo, copy, or imagery.
